The head is looking good, Sparky! Good luck with the hair. Mac's hair does cover his ears you know.

I can't believe that anyone would think that I would even attempt this project without knowing *exactly* what Mac's head looks like from every angle... :jk:

Do tell, Sparky...Dooooooo tell!

Sparky 06-07-2007 03:53 PM

Man, I was working on the hair today and I screwed up, and I need to buy more of the brown suede, but the fabric store I went to today was out. If they don't have it at any of the other Hancocks, I'll have to find another fabric altogether to use.

In other news the two fan units are all done and ready to install, I just have to make the hair first so I can be sure of *where* to place them.

If suede doesn't work or you can't find any more, a really short brown faux fur may work ok. I don't know how expensive it'd be in comparison to the suede, but it would probably give off the same impression of hair (or better) as/than the suede.

As usual, I'm so excited to see the finished product!

Sparky 06-08-2007 08:09 PM

I looked everywhere for more of the light brown suede, and nobody has it anymore. :( It's a discontinued fabric. So I suck for messing up. I went ahead and bought some nice upholstery suede to replace it, its a bit darker though. Turns out that "Mac Hair Brown" is a VERY hard shade to match, I was extremely lucky to have found it before...oh well. I have something. Its a good brown, its not TOO dark.

Anyways tonight I made the backpack, and I posted pictures of that as well as the fans that I made a few days ago.

Sorry to hear that you had a great deal of difficult finding the right color for Mac's hair. The backpack looks good. :)

Sparky 06-20-2007 12:21 PM

I am nearly done with this. It looks like complete and utter crap. :P I'll bring it to the Con, but I may just wear the outfit with either a wig or just cut my hair short (I plan to get it cut before the Con anyways) some of the time.

bloonuggets 06-21-2007 04:39 PM

Light brown wig.

http://www.cosworx.com has them.

Sparky 06-21-2007 05:49 PM

Um...I didn't say I needed help finding one. We have several costume shops in the Sacramento area.

Sparky 06-23-2007 10:43 PM

Well, its done, finally.

The link again

Eh. It's heavy and its hot and I may need some new, more comfortable pants...but it's *done*. Yay. :)

Imaginary Light 06-24-2007 07:27 AM

I think it's pretty darn good:) I mean, this was your first attempt at making a mascot-style costume, right? That's gotta be tough.

And I like the "I *heart* FB" underwear. Awesome final touch8D

I <3 FB boxers.

Please tell us, Sparkster, that you'll not be going Rambo on us if you someone there should throw a surprise party in your honor! :LOL:

One Radical Dude 06-24-2007 10:09 AM

Hey, where can I get that underwear? j/k 8D

No, really, for this being your first time to construct a mascot-style costume, this looks nice. :)

xxxClaire 06-24-2007 03:47 PM

That looks great! :D Especially for your first time making something like that! Great job! :)

A little place called the San Diego Comic-Con, 2007. I'm making enough for everybody. ;)

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the kind words. I still hate it though, lol. :D

Hey, if you're giving us free stuff, I'll say whatever you want me to say about it. 8D

jekylljuice 06-25-2007 02:41 AM

You ought to give yourself more credit there, Sparky. It's a much better job than I could do. :)

bloonuggets 06-27-2007 07:02 AM

And now having heard that ORD's bring his Blooregard costume, both of you should do a photoshoot!

scary_dream 08-09-2007 01:05 PM

I think it turned out great! Even if it is your first try, it's still definitely something to be exremely proud of!

I love the FB undies!!
